Join Penn Career Services for a panel discussion on interviewing for Faculty Jobs as a STEM PhD/postdoc.
Making a good impression during a campus interview will be the best way to convince search committees that you are the ideal candidate. This requires that you can talk effectively about yourself and your research, ask good questions to the faculty, administrators, and students that you will meet, and highlight how your particular knowledge and experiences set you apart from other candidates. Whether you are applying for a visiting assistant professor position, a non-tenured research/teaching faculty role, or a tenure track faculty position at a college or university, it helps to be prepared for the types of questions you will be asked, and to understand what search committees are looking for.
The campus visit can also give you insight into what you might negotiate for if you receive an offer after the interview. Ask the panelists about their experiences, and learn from the best practices they share.
